gs:setup-gbrain

gs:setup-gbrain is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thanh-abaii/gstack-windows-port. It costs 44 tokens per session (10,312 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup workflow for gbrain, a local memory system for a coding agent. It installs the command-line tool, initializes local storage or Supabase, registers an MCP server, and records trust settings for remote services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up gbrain with local PGLite or Supabase storage, MCP access, and per-service trust policies.
Why use it?
It organizes the setup needed for the agent's memory and its connections to external services.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gs:setup-gbrain scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 939 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Preamble (run first)

python "bin/gstack-boot.py" --skill setup-gbrain | iex

If PROACTIVE is "false", do not proactively suggest gstack skills AND do not auto-invoke skills based on conversation context. Only run skills the user explicitly types (e.g., /gs:qa, /gs:ship). If you would have auto-invoked a skill, instead briefly say: "I think /skillname might help here — want me to run it?" and wait for confirmation. The user opted out of proactive behavior.

If SKILL_PREFIX is "true", the user has namespaced skill names. When suggesting or invoking other gstack skills, use the /gstack- prefix (e.g., /gstack-qa instead of /qa, /gstack-ship instead of /ship). Disk paths are unaffected — always use $GSTACK_ROOT/[skill-name]/SKILL.md for reading skill files.

If output shows UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <old> <new>: read $GSTACK_ROOT/gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" (auto-upgrade if configured, otherwise AskUserQuestion with 4 options, write snooze state if declined). If JUST_UPGRADED <from> <to>: tell user "Running gstack v{to} (just updated!)" and continue.

If WRITING_STYLE_PENDING is yes: You're on the first skill run after upgrading to gstack v1. Ask the user once about the new default writing style. Use AskUserQuestion:

v1 prompts = simpler. Technical terms get a one-sentence gloss on first use, questions are framed in outcome terms, sentences are shorter.

Keep the new default, or prefer the older tighter prose?

Options:

  • A) Keep the new default (recommended — good writing helps everyone)
  • B) Restore V0 prose — set explain_level: terse

If A: leave explain_level unset (defaults to default). If B: run $GSTACK_BIN/gstack-config set explain_level terse.

Always run (regardless of choice):

Remove-Item -Force ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompt-pending
New-Item -ItemType File -Force ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompted | Out-Null

This only happens once. If WRITING_STYLE_PENDING is no, skip this entirely.

If LAKE_INTRO is no: Before continuing, introduce the Completeness Principle. Tell the user: "gstack follows the Boil the Lake principle — always do the complete thing when AI makes the marginal cost near-zero. Read more: https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean" Then offer to open the essay in their default browser:

Start-Process https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean
New-Item -ItemType File -Force ~/.gstack/.completeness-intro-seen | Out-Null

Only run open if the user says yes. Always run touch/New-Item to mark as seen. This only happens once.

If TEL_PROMPTED is no AND LAKE_INTRO is yes: After the lake intro is handled, ask the user about telemetry. Use AskUserQuestion:

Help gstack get better! Community mode shares usage data (which skills you use, how long they take, crash info) with a stable device ID so we can track trends and fix bugs faster. No code, file paths, or repo names are ever sent. Change anytime with gstack-config set telemetry off.

Options:

  • A) Help gstack get better! (recommended)
  • B) No thanks

If A: run $GSTACK_BIN/gstack-config set telemetry community

If B: ask a follow-up AskUserQuestion:

How about anonymous mode? We just learn that someone used gstack — no unique ID, no way to connect sessions. Just a counter that helps us know if anyone's out there.

Options:

  • A) Sure, anonymous is fine
  • B) No thanks, fully off

If B→A: run $GSTACK_BIN/gstack-config set telemetry anonymous If B→B: run $GSTACK_BIN/gstack-config set telemetry off

Always run:

New-Item -ItemType File -Force ~/.gstack/.telemetry-prompted | Out-Null

This only happens once. If TEL_PROMPTED is yes, skip this entirely.

If PROACTIVE_PROMPTED is no AND TEL_PROMPTED is yes: After telemetry is handled, ask the user about proactive behavior. Use AskUserQuestion:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
